If you think you are beaten, you are
If you think you dare not, you don't
If you like to win, but think you can't
It's almost a cinch you won't
If you think you'll lose, you are lost
For out in this world we find
Success begins with a fellow's will
It's all in the state of mind
If you think you are outclassed, you are
You've got to think high to rise
You've got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win a prize
Life's battles don't always go
To the stronger or faster man
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the man who thinks he can

I am . . .
I am a super boy who likes hockey.
I wonder how hockey got its name.
I hear the sound of sticks pounding the ice.
|
I see myself winning the Stanley Cup.
I want to score a million goals.
I am a super boy who likes hockey.
I pretend to be a famous hockey player.
I feel the sweat of Wayne Gretzky.
I touch the Stanley Cup.
I worry hockey won’t come back.
I cry that there is no hockey this year.
I am a super boy who likes hockey.
I understand that I can’t be the best.
I say that hockey is the best.
I dream of playing with the Oilers.
I try to do my best.
I hope hockey will come back.
I am a super boy who likes hockey.

Well, another hockey season is here
And I am writing to you for just one reason
Please don't scream, curse or yell
Remember I am not in the NHL
I am only 8 years old
I can't be bought, traded or sold
I'm not looking for hockey fame
I just want to have fun and play the game
Please don't make me feel as if I committed a sin
Because sometimes my team didn't win
I don't want to be that great you see
I'd rather play and just be me
And so, in closing, here is one tip
Remember, the name of the game is . . . sportsmanship
